scholarly journals Knn based Crop and Fertilizer Prediction

India has always been active in agriculture, in fact even in this age of industrialization agriculture and agriculturebased industries continue to be a main source of income for a large percentage of the population. Machine learning and data mining have become, in the present day, are very important mediums when it comes to research in the crop yielding domain. Many a times we come across news on the paper about farmers committing suicide because of crop failures and increase in loans. In preventing such situations, crop yield prediction software can play a very important role. This research is an attempt in proposing a method to predict the success of crop for a particular area by using data on amounts and ratios of different components of soil like nitrogen, potassium, phosphorus and environmental statistics on temperature and weather. Various machine learning algorithms are used to get an accurate result. KNN is used for classification and regression prediction problem. It also attempts in providing a precise output on what fertilizers can be used to better the yield. Through this, therefore, farmers will also be able to predict their profits and final revenues.

Agriculture sector in India is facing rigorous problem to maximize crop productivity. More than 60 percent of the crop still depends on climatic factors like rainfall, temperature, humidity. This paper discusses the use of various Data Mining applications in agriculture sector. Data Mining is used to solve various problems in agriculture sector. It can be used it to solve yield prediction.  The problem of yield prediction is a major problem that remains to be solved based on available data. Data mining techniques are the better choices for this purpose. Different Data Mining techniques are used and evaluated in agriculture for estimating the future year's crop production. In this paper we have focused on predicting crop yield productivity of kharif & Rabi Crops.

AbstractCrop yield prediction is crucial for global food security yet notoriously challenging due to multitudinous factors that jointly determine the yield, including genotype, environment, management, and their complex interactions. Integrating the power of optimization, machine learning, and agronomic insight, we present a new predictive model (referred to as the interaction regression model) for crop yield prediction, which has three salient properties. First, it achieved a relative root mean square error of 8% or less in three Midwest states (Illinois, Indiana, and Iowa) in the US for both corn and soybean yield prediction, outperforming state-of-the-art machine learning algorithms. Second, it identified about a dozen environment by management interactions for corn and soybean yield, some of which are consistent with conventional agronomic knowledge whereas some others interactions require additional analysis or experiment to prove or disprove. Third, it quantitatively dissected crop yield into contributions from weather, soil, management, and their interactions, allowing agronomists to pinpoint the factors that favorably or unfavorably affect the yield of a given location under a given weather and management scenario. The most significant contribution of the new prediction model is its capability to produce accurate prediction and explainable insights simultaneously. This was achieved by training the algorithm to select features and interactions that are spatially and temporally robust to balance prediction accuracy for the training data and generalizability to the test data.
